DATE:08-12-25
DEPT:PW
SUBJECT:2024/25 WATER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM
(E. 14TH STREET & MEADOWLANE AVENUE)
COUNCIL ACTION FORM
BACKGROUND:
The Water System Improvements program provides for replacing water mains in areas that
are experiencing rusty water problems. It also provides for installing larger distribution mains in
areas that have a high concentration of 4” and 6" supply lines, transferring water services from
4” and 6" water mains in streets where larger water mains exist, and abandoning 4” water
mains. Eliminating duplicate water mains, where possible, improves water flow and helps
reduce rusty water. This project will include improvements on E. 14th Street from
Meadowlane Avenue to Glendale Avenue and Meadowlane Avenue from E. 13th Street
to E. 14th Street.
On August 6, 2025, four bids for the project were received. However, one bid did not
include all the required information and was deemed non-responsive.
